The
horse, ridden by Patterson, has a record number of championships in
model (halter) classes, but has never been shown under saddle before.
“This horse has never been out competing in the show ring in a
Versatility performance class before,” said Patterson.
“I feel like a million dollars.
Being able to ride ‘Cash’ to a Reserve World Championship is a
real thrill.”

Amazingly, Patterson’s horses who won in Versatility events and his
horses who won the Model classes are all sired by the same stallion,
Boss’ Midnight Cash. “It all
goes back to good breeding,” said Patterson.
“The stallion line for these horses started with the legendary
Zane’s Boss Man, a performance horse who was the father of Cash.
Cash himself is a living legend.
He has won three World Grand Championships and four World
Championships in model classes.
“Good
Missouri Fox Trotters should be able to do Versatility events, then hit
the trails for a trail ride.
And, they should look good doing it,” Patterson said.
“This
has been a good show. But,
you can’t feel anything but good when you ride a Cash horse,”
Patterson said. “I’m
looking forward to coming back next year."
